Miami R2: Murray vs Falla

Yes. No coverage here in US. So live update is all there is. Let's hope that Falla looks past Andy. And Andy comes out playing great tennis. It seems like a lot of tennis players worry about getting through their first match of a tournament. Lendl should be in the box which hopefully will give Andy confidence. So good luck Andy and good tennis to you! Go out there and defeat Falla!

Disgraceful that the first half of R2 is being ignored, especially as Nadal is playing as well. And I hate the suspense involved in watching live scores!

I'm glad Andy got Falla and not Istomin. At least he has played Falla before. Hopefully he'll get a comfortable match under his belt to set him up for a possible meeting with Raonic, a player who could cause him a few problems.

Realise I'll be out this afternoon - quite relieved in a way as I think I'd find following on live score even worse for the nerves than watching the match. You don't even have the consolation of seeing the tennis. So after IW inevitably Heard a clip of Andy on radio this morning and he certainly isn't underestimating Falla, pointing out that he had match point against smugfed at Wimbledon a couple of years ago. I'm quite sure he and Mr L will have prepared very carefully for this match and sounds like practice has been going well [though I have to say experience suggests talk of great practice doesn't always translate into great match play]. I just hope that it's Andy not Falla who is on fire today.

Andy never under-estimates his opponents, but, as for that Wimbledon match, I understand from somebody who watched it that Fed was having an unusual off-day in that he seemed very lethargic. Andy beat Falla 7-6, 6-1 in Washington that year, so he will know exactly what to do. Still feel though!

I'm still fuming at not being able to watch ANY matches today. All I can find on livestreams are Challengers - whilst the cream of the game are in action in Miami!!! Beggars belief, really.

It certainly does. Can't understand the logic of it when you've got all these top 20 players in action and nooone can watch them.

AND to make matters worse the ATP are trumpeting on their match website the fact that Nadal is playing (no mention of Andy ) yet their own livestream isn't even showing today's matches. I just don't get it. Surely ESPN, the Tennis Channel or CBS must be televising it?!

I see the prize money was raised. Apparently Mr Smug was paid a million dollars when he won the final at IW.Also in the times today Mr Smug has been saying that there might be a boycott from other players as they want a bigger split of the prize money not sure of the percentage. They are complaining that the top player are paid too much. They want more for players who would be knocked out early to be paid more. Mr Smug was talking as a representative of the Players Council.

Meanwhile I understand from somebody in the know that the reason today's matches aren't being televised is because CBS is the host broadcasting company and THEY dictate all TV, radio and live-streaming schedules - something which is all probably down to advertising, although I'm not sure just how that works - so, nothing anyone can do about it I'm afraid. Just a pity Andy couldn't have been scheduled to play tomorrow, and His Smugship today!

Haha, well done Aileen- but it doesn't know either! Article ends....So there you have it. Two very different, but brilliant, tennis tournaments, both battling to be dubbed ‘the fifth grand slam.’ What do you think?
